Looking for blue raspberry (NR) substitute

Been using Nicotine River’s (River supply) blue raspberry for a couple years now. I did buy 2 240ml bottles before they stopped supplying the public, sitting here mixing today and realized I’m done to about 20mls. I am just not sure if purchasing a gallon at $150 plus about $50 shipping to Pa makes sense. I have 6 working recipes, 2 of which are favorites for my best friend and myself, and 3 or 4 more that need tweaking. So my question is has anyone tried any concentrates that are at leas close to the same flavor? I had tried tfa before I found Nr, i have ssa raspberry blue type, and fw blue raspberry neither of which come close to the flavor profile. I don’t want to change the flavor of the recipe since they really good, imo, I don’t really have alot of free time to to mess around with trying to adapt the concentrates I have to match nr’s concentrate, hell just finding time to mix or make coils is a bitch lately. So any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I’m sorry @Jmars I never tested that one. Stating that you already tried FW’s, and SSA’s offerings that did not work for you helps out. Wish I’d tried it so I could give you a “close-y”.

I don’t recall doing a blue razz, I just looked and found Noted OG’s blue razz but NR wasn’t on their list. Recently we talked about VSO blue razz. I don’t recommend that one, but I use Flavorah and sometimes I use OSDIY Blue razz slush.

I don’t think so, but if you have time request it on discord or Reddit. I’m not suggesting anymore things because they never add it in…like cheesecake. You’ll have better luck lol

I’ve been wanting to get a couple of their flavors for a while and just haven’t so mows a good time. And I will try flv. Thank you @fidalgo_vapes the the diy or die suggestion, haven’t had time to watch any videos lately but I will definitely try to fit it in

So after trying just about every blue raspberry concentrate and multiple different combinations of them I finally placed my first order with liquid barn AND WE HAVE A WINNER. It is almost a spot on 1 to 1 with river supply blue raspberry. I also picked up a couple of their other flavors and after a week of steeping most of them smell pretty darn good. Thanks to everyone for the advice.
